adambombnola This film had me "rolling" with laughter. So light hearted and inspiring. Definitely one of the best skating movies ever made.
nrage40 The good thing about this movie is that it doesn't take itself seriously even as a comedy. Yes, some of the humor is juvenile, vulgar even or just plain not funny but Imo their are just as many parts where this offbeat comedy completely works. It makes fun of itself as well as the entire decade of the 1970's especially the disco era. I loved the music especially sung by the guys that are spoofing the Bee Gee's known here as The Boogaloo's. I literally cracked up when they sang "It's F*** O' clock!". The actors,writers and director did a good job of making this a fun movie to laugh and make fun of. Just go into this knowing that it's a completely stupid movie and you should enjoy it if you have a wacky sense of humor. I hope to see more from them in the future.
robmars666 I have no clue why people are giving this such bad reviews, maybe they were just born without a sense of humor, maybe they wanted this to be more The Usual Suspects. All I know is the theater I saw this in was cracking up the entire time. This movie is loaded with parts that will make you laugh so bad you feel a 6 pack coming on. This film is not intended to be for humorless adults, it is intended to be a movie for a bunch of people to watch together in a basement and have a great time at a badly made very funny film. I would highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes the movie Mystery Team (another film made by a comedy group who got their start on youtube). Can not wait to see it again.
Shae Spencer "Roller Town" is the first film from the genius sketch comedy group Picnicface. I became a big fan of the group when they exploded on Youtube with viral hits like "Powerthirst" and "Hey Africa." I'm the kind of guy who started subscribing to individual members' channels, watching every obscure, random video they'd post, and I have loved every minute of it. So there was obviously some anticipation for this movie on my part.In short, it did not disappoint.The writing on the film is excellent. 90% of the jokes are good to great, a few, not so much. I was giggling throughout the movie. The goofy style and lighthearted spin on 70's pop culture was great fun. The soundtrack was surprisingly excellent. All of the Picnicface members in the film did a great job. Watch for a great scene-stealing performance from Brian MacQuarrie as Grandpa.There are a few minor sound and pacing/editing issues, but these do not detract at all from a hilarious, entertaining film. Looking forward to more from these great humans in the future, collectively or as individuals.
